Psalm of the Week: I Lift My Eyes up to the Hills/Psalm 121

Journeying the Psalms #34

Set to the 18th-century Scottish air ‘MacPhearson’s Lament,’ this Psalm reflects on the comfort of God’s everlasting protection. It begins with the iconic image of the hills or mountains that remind us of where we can find our help, and it continues to unfold the image of God watching over us, never slumbering, offering us shade and shelter, and blessing us as we “come and go,” both now and forever.

Continue your reflections with the accompanying journal, which includes further questions for reflection and some invitations to prayer and practice.
